- activating an editor mode that was already active but in an drawer, opens that drawer
- dock tabs can now register for drawer opening/closing callbacks so that they can do stuff when the drawer opens or closes. For example, now the placement browser focuses its search field when the drawer opens
[CL 14723696 by Matt Kuhlenschmidt in ue5-main branch]
- Content browser drawer now working well with ctrl+space as the default keybinding. Summoning the drawer will immediately focus the search bar. Had to add some new hooks into the content browser api for that
- Moved status bar to a proper module
[CL 13470560 by Matt Kuhlenschmidt in ue5-main branch]
- Hooked up console edit box
- Hooked up active tool messages to modes (the mode specific messages need a lot of improvement
- Added status bars to standalone asset editors

Made placement browser its own tab and not the default mode.
The default mode is now "Select" which does nothing
Modes are now actived from a toolbar drop down (old keybindings still work) and the old tabbed UI for changing modes has been deprecated.
Mode tab no longer appears when there is no active mode and will appear when a mode becomes active
This change resets the default layout of the editor

MAJOR FEATURES + CHANGES

Change 3209340 on 2016/11/23 by Ben.Marsh
Convert UE4 codebase to an "include what you use" model - where every header just includes the dependencies it needs, rather than every source file including large monolithic headers like Engine.h and UnrealEd.h.
Measured full rebuild times around 2x faster using XGE on Windows, and improvements of 25% or more for incremental builds and full rebuilds on most other platforms.
* Every header now includes everything it needs to compile.
* There's a CoreMinimal.h header that gets you a set of ubiquitous types from Core (eg. FString, FName, TArray, FVector, etc...). Most headers now include this first.
* There's a CoreTypes.h header that sets up primitive UE4 types and build macros (int32, PLATFORM_WIN64, etc...). All headers in Core include this first, as does CoreMinimal.h.
* Every .cpp file includes its matching .h file first.
* This helps validate that each header is including everything it needs to compile.
* No engine code includes a monolithic header such as Engine.h or UnrealEd.h any more.
* You will get a warning if you try to include one of these from the engine. They still exist for compatibility with game projects and do not produce warnings when included there.
* There have only been minor changes to our internal games down to accommodate these changes. The intent is for this to be as seamless as possible.
* No engine code explicitly includes a precompiled header any more.
* We still use PCHs, but they're force-included on the compiler command line by UnrealBuildTool instead. This lets us tune what they contain without breaking any existing include dependencies.
* PCHs are generated by a tool to get a statistical amount of coverage for the source files using it, and I've seeded the new shared PCHs to contain any header included by > 15% of source files.
Tool used to generate this transform is at Engine\Source\Programs\IncludeTool.

Breaking changes include:
* Rename of GEditorModeTools -> GLevelEditorModeTools to signify that it applies only to the level editor modes
* Addition of FEditorModeRegistry, responsible for managing and creating new editor modes. Modes are no longer registered with an instance of the mode, instead with a mode factory that is able to create a new mode of that type.
* Editor modes now operate on FEditorViewportClients rather than FLevelEditorViewportClients
* Added ability to specify an FEditorModeTools when creating an FEditorViewport
Moved component vizualiser manager handling outside of individual editor modes, and into FLevelEditorViewportClient. This should make it easier to transplant in future.
This work addresses TTP#334640 - EDITOR: Investigate making editor modes a per-'editor' concept
